Hello my dear wicked hares! It's time to show you the 4th project of our 2018 EARLY STITCHERS CLUB....

As we are approaching Halloween I thought to design a lovely spells bag. you can use this bag for your WIPS or you can store inside some herbs and use it during the night. Chamomille, mint... a lot of herbs calm and help to sleep better. La Luna in italian means The Moon.

For this year the CLUB will give you:

- membership card (will be shipped end February)

- 5 new designs (medium size, big size, ornament size)

- special discount of 20 % on your next order (only if placed by email and not on Etsy, specifing the order number of your Etsy order for the annual membership of the club)

- 1 sample of one of the linen by the Primitive Hare (will be shipped in February with the card, it might be a printed linen, Old Salem or a sample from the Rainbow Collection)

- 1 special hand dyed thread to stitch our logo - pattern (will be shipped in february with the card)

Each design is based on the idea of "prim - witchy - early and victorian". Every pattern will include a full coloured cover, the chart, and some suggestions in order to learn new stitches, new techniques.... tricks, finishings...

For every design will be available a LIMITED quantity of kits. Kits have to be purchased SEPARATELY.

(I'll try to be on time but the life of a creative person can be chaotic LOL)

Hello my dear wicked hares! It's time to show you the third project of our 2018EARLY STITCHERS CLUB....
I designed a portrait of Isabella, the eldest daughter of King Edward III and Queen Philippa, I found the portrait very sweet and so: here is the pattern, directly from the original one of the middleage. I also printed a new fabric: Chant of the Queen. This is a 30 ct linen and the music sheet has been written by... ANNE BOLEYN!!!! Isn't it amazing! It's so incredible that it survived centuries of wars, revolutions and violence... I love history!!!
I hope you'll love to stitch my Damsel :) Have fun!

My dear Wicked Hares, it's a tradition: at the beginning of spring I MUST clean my storehouse in order to create space for new stash... for this reason I have a bunch of treasures to sell at a very special price. From TODAY till... I don't know LOL I'll post items I want to sell in very limited quantities: fabrics, ribbons, models, thread packs...

HOW IT WORK: For every item you want to buy I'll send you a Paypal request and at the end of the market I'll send you a final request for the shipping costs.

mercoledì 4 aprile 2018

My dear Canadian customers, the problems with your custom and postal service do not get better... Packages get lost or arrive after MONTHS. For these reasons I updated the shipping costs on my Etsy shop. The shipping costs are extremely expensive because they include track with UPS courier.

Not trackable shipment is available on request but I WILL NOT REFUND YOUR ORDER.

I'm so sorry to do this...but in few weeks I had to ship for the second time a lot of orders and I can't afford these costs.

If you need to place an order please feel free to send me a private message to me Isobel Argante and I'll try to do my best to help you.

Thanks

PS: Or order from your local cross stitch shop in Canada, for example Traditional Stitches (Calgary).

If you have a cross stitch shop in Canada please feel free to contact me for wholesale conditions.
